    Anyone here develop Shopify App with no coding experience?

    Need some opinions of people that are programmers. How long do you think it would take for someone to develop a functional app of moderate-high complexity through Shopify?

    Is this business model for a mobile app realistic?

    Yearly Corporation Maintenance Fees

    Thoughts on a forum section dedicated to programming/tech?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    From what I've seen there are quite a few developers that frequent the forum.

There are likely better places to go for general technical questions but for...
